FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for casual walking?
While comfortable, these trainers are optimized for technical trails. For casual, flat walking, they may be more supportive than necessary, but they will still perform well.
How do I clean the GORE-TEX® lining?
The GORE-TEX® lining is best cleaned by wiping the inside with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid saturating the shoe and allow it to air dry completely.
What does the '1TRL' designation mean?
1TRL typically indicates a special or elevated iteration of a popular Merrell model, often featuring unique colorways or subtle design enhancements.
Can I use these in snow?
The GORE-TEX® waterproofing will protect against wet snow. However, the outsole is designed for varied terrain, not specifically ice or deep snow traction.
What is the benefit of the rock plate?
The rock plate is a protective layer embedded in the sole that prevents sharp rocks and roots from being felt through the shoe, enhancing comfort and safety on rocky trails.
How durable is the FloatPro™ Foam Midsole?
FloatPro™ Foam is engineered for durability and lightweight cushioning, designed to maintain its supportive properties over extended use on challenging terrain.
Are these shoes vegan?
Yes, the Moab Speed 2 GORE-TEX® BL 1TRL features 100% recycled materials in its lining, footbed cover, laces, and webbing, and is considered vegan-friendly.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the lacing system. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Consult the sizing guide for the correct UK size.
Water seeping into the shoe
Ensure the GORE-TEX® membrane is intact and check laces and tongue area for proper sealing. Clean off any mud that might be blocking water runoff.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the Vibram® outsole of any mud, dirt, or debris that may be lodged in the treads.
Foul odor developing
Air out the shoes thoroughly after each use. Wash insoles separately if possible, or wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing.

Care:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. For the interior, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, ensuring not to saturate the shoe. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
